Fulfill your longheld desires of a tranquil rural lifestyle, and have a look at this farmlet in the country.

Only 2 kilometres from Greytown's village centre, but set well back from the road down a well-formed and treelined driveway, this relocated bungalow on 1.4 hectares (c3.5 acres) enjoys big skies and views of the ranges.

Fenced into 4 flat paddocks with dual water supplies (bore, and a 35,000L tank), this is the perfect place to raise children who long for ponies, pet lambs, chickens, puppies and kittens, or for adult children who long for a tractor and mower, and maybe a steer or two! A couple of kunikunis would be happy here too!

The 1920's modernized bungalow sits centre-stage, and has an openplan kitchen, dining and living room opening through French doors to a sun-drenched deck which is also the perfect place to enjoy entertaining your friends under stunning Wairarapa night skies.

Three double bedrooms, a large attractive bathroom and a compact hideaway laundry run off the long central hallway, and native timber flooring abounds. Broadband, a Jetmaster fireplace, Fujitsu heatpump and gas hot water and cooking hob provide the practicalities, as does a modern septic tank system.

The 54m2 large double garage with automatic doors and a fully lined and decorated sleepout have power and a woodshed attached. A set of small stockyards, automated troughs, and a lamb shed make this a complete small lifestyle block, but is within easy commuting distance to Wellington by train or car.

So, bring the children and the pets and your recreational toys, build a glasshouse, plant olives or firewood trees, rear a few calves, plant your vegetable garden, and let the 'Good Life' begin!
